Parisians are known for their classic, effortless, and irresistibly chic style, and while their outfits are often rooted in timeless basics, the French certainly don't shy away from incorporating trends within their outfits. Personally, that's what I love about the French approach to getting dressed—it strikes the perfect balance of timeless and trend-forward. And their footwear is no exception.

Think retro suede sneakers, jelly shoes, and woven flats that lean into some of this year's biggest runway trends. For more inspiration, keep scrolling to see the six standout shoe trends stylish French women are wearing this spring.
Retro Suede Sneakers
Suede sneakers are a huge trend this spring, and it's one the French fashion set are embracing fully. Opt for retro styles from brands such as Adidas and Gola.

Jelly Shoes
Fun, playful, and versatile. The French fashion set are all about wearing trending jelly shoes—particularly on vacation—with casual, warm-weather outfits.
Shop:
Woven Shoes
Woven shoes were all over the spring/summer 2025 runways, but you could say the trend is practically a classic for French women in the warmer months. No one embraces woven leather detailing quite like French women once the temps start to rise. You'll see stylish Parisians gravitate towards braided textures on flats and heels alike.
Shop:
Cherry Red
Red shoes were another huge spring/summer runway trend, and it's a style you'll actually find French women wearing year-round. They're the perfect pop of color to amp up jeans and elevated basics.
Shop:
Leopard Print
Whether it's in the form of Mary Janes or kitten-heel slingbacks, the French love a touch of leopard print to pair with their jeans, relaxed trousers, or miniskirts.
Shop:
Mesh
Mesh shoes have become increasingly popular among stylish Parisians, and we've been spotting the warm-weather-friendly fabric on ballet flats, wedges, and heels this spring.
